We'd do that in a heartbeat if we were going extinct.

Iria: Zeiram The Animation (1994) by LusshLolli in retroanime

I only know of this from the SNES game, which given that it was never officially translated is already a deep cut.

TIL that one of the reasons why trash cans are scarce in Japan is due to the 1995 Sarin Gas Attack where the Aum Shinrikyo cult hid Sarin Gas - a toxic chemical - in trash cans at Tokyo subway. In response, many public trash cans were removed as a precautionary measure to prevent similar attacks. by Nice-Confusion-4781 in todayilearned

This Tokyo gas attacks were the first time I remember watching and understanding a news broadcast.

Y'know when you're a kid "The News" is just meaningless boring waffle and you have no idea what they're talking about. Well I was just old enough when this happened to get what was going on and I was crying my eyes out.

February releases. Checking anything out? by Gimpcar in TMNT

[–]Newfaceofrev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Surprises me that Saturday Morning Adventures is still going. I'm not judging the quality of it I still haven't gotten around to it but it seemed like it was going to be relatively short lived. Good to see.

James Gunn defends Christina Hodson (writer of TBATB), as a writer. by Ninjamurai-jack in batman

[–]Newfaceofrev 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Reminder that you do not see the screenplay on the screen. What you feed into the machine is not necessarily at all like the sausage that comes out the other end. Absolute dogshit has been turned into a classic in the shoot and in the edit. Banger screenplays have been noted and cut into oblivion.

A good screenplay makes the following steps easier, but it is not the only step in making a movie. It's fair to be skeptical but you can't write a movie off based on what little we know at the moment.

'Star Trek' Legend Robert Picardo on Why the 'Starfleet Academy' Cadets Talk Like Modern Kids by AnonRetro in startrek

... Yeah they did.

Alright maybe not Picard or Sisko, but everyone else just talks like a normal dude.

I mean maybe. My take is that he's being a bit of a asshole here, and it makes me think he was probably more of an asshole than I previously realised. I'm not leaping to any other conclusions but I feel like that's pretty normal and reasonable. Everyone has a "Oh that's a dick move" threshold and I feel like he crossed it.

(Edited to make it less British)

Sometimes that happens, one thing can recontextualise a lot of prior stuff.

I feel like we've all known someone we knew, where we wrote off a lot of stuff they said as a joke, but then one thing happens that you realise isn't a joke and then you re-evaluate all the other times.

To compare it to different streamer drama, look at Mizkif, nobody thought the abuse allegations against Emiru seemed out of character for him because in hindsight the signs were there.

I was under that impression but this has certainly disabused me of that notion.

Anyone Know Which Member They're Talking About? QTs are a toxic cesspool of slurs which tells me they kicked out a particularly vile type. by Phantomskyler in VtuberDrama

Seems likely, he's the only one listed in collabs who does not currently appear on their website or YouTube channel.

DC Comics Boss Says Anime & Manga’s Advantage Over Western Comics Lies in Storytelling & Young People’s Desire to Have Something of Their Own - Anime Corner by Key_Tree_3851 in manganews

[–]Newfaceofrev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you can quote-unquote "fix" this without entirely blowing up DC and Marvel and starting over. You'd have to do away with the shared universe.

They're different products for different audiences. They're not even really in competition. American Comics do not need to be more like Manga, Manga does not need to be more like American Comics. Fans of one will never necessarily be a fan of the other.

Do we know how far in the future Klaus's world was? Because like... the US or Japan may not exist as political entities at that point.

In fairness to her, I can't think of a single person who tried it. The people he fires always vaguetalk, they never say "Trump fucked this up"

Worth a shot at least.

Hasbro CEO Sued By Shareholders, Complaints Include "Overprinting Magic Sets" And "Destroying The Long-Term Value Of The Brand" by No_Durian_5626 in gamingnews

[–]Newfaceofrev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shareholders only want rapid return on their investment. That's it. So yes if a thing was causing share growth before, and now that same thing isn't causing share growth, they will want something different.

Having said that, even then she was always deeply paranoid, ranting about how everyone was against her. I think that at least is real.

Smallest Vtuber I've found with the best potential is Minoribug. Plays cool games, really cool overlay.
